My logstash instance has stopped working with a Permission denied error. I'm running on Windows. I've been using version 7.8.1 and have also tried with 7.16.2. Both return the same error. I'm running as an administrator. Same error in Windows cmd and git bash shells. Same error when I try to run the command on different logstash configuration files.
My command: logstash -tf logstash-sample.conf
Error message and stack trace for v7.16.2:
Using JAVA_HOME defined java: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_331
WARNING: Using JAVA_HOME while Logstash distribution comes with a bundled JDK.
DEPRECATION: The use of JAVA_HOME is now deprecated and will be removed starting from 8.0. Please configure LS_JAVA_HOME instead.

I'm not sure what to look at to fix the permission issue. Any ideas on the underlying cause?
This is an open issue in logstash. The underlying Java issue is here. You can make it work with a current JVM by adding -Djdk.io.File.enableADS=true to the JVM options.
